I typically love Ancrum but this was no Wicker King, for me at least!
Still a cute story though! Just didn‘t have me crying.

This.book. wow i‘m officially obsessed with K. Ancrum. I will read anything she ever puts out because this was stunning in every way.
I started this book this afternoon, thinking I'd take a day or two to read it, and vlog the experience.
Well, I'm done before midnight, and probably have at least an hour of vlog footage, and may have been crying at the end of it, so if that isn't an endorsement, I don't know what is.
Ryann is used to taking care of everyone around her; Alexandria is used to avoiding everyone around her. When the two girls form an unlikely relationship over their mutual interest in interplanetary travel, they discover that knowing someone who gets you can be just as wondrous as the outer reaches of deep space. This story felt a bit like The Breakfast Club blended with sci-fi and a slow-burn lesbian romance. For readers who like to dream big. 🚀
This is a really lovely book about space and friends and dreams and whether they get deferred or not.
Read this as a buddy read for the Dragons and Tea book club on Goodreads, was a cute read. 5/5
I don't know how Kayla always manages to leave me a sobbing, happy mess...but she's done it again.
Writing some reviews this morning (not for this book, but it‘s in that pile) and Persephone decided to hang out with me.
Wow. So this book completely took me by surprise. I have never tabbed a book for quotes, but this one is tabbed everywhere. I loved it. So sad and sweet at the same time. My only issue is that I felt some things that were said were pretty out of character for most teenagers. However, the story line is so good you can overlook some
Page 24 and I already want to cry. This book is going to make me cry isn‘t it?? One big sobbing, blubbery mess of a cry right?.....Damn. Why do I do this to myself?🙄
This is a fun, fast YA read which requires you to suspend ALL disbelief. Once you do, however, it is a very entertaining story about a group of teenage misfits with big dreams. It‘s about chasing those dreams, the families you make (not just the ones you‘re born into), friendship, regret, longing, love, hope, redemption & the powerful lure of exploration/discovery no matter what it costs. I expect this will be popular with middle school readers.
😂
All the calculus and my fear of sitting on top of a rocket! 🚀🌎💫🚀
Love this dedication.
I‘m in the middle of several good books right now—The Blind Astronomer‘s Daughter & The Merry Spinster I‘m looking at you—but with the end of Spring Break looming, it‘s time to start another one of the library books I brought home to preview. So, next up, the tagged book.
Last big book order of the school year came in today and this is the short stack I brought home to preview. Love the design of Ancrum‘s book. So yeah, I‘m about to interrupt my in progress book, The Blind Astronomer‘s Daughter (which I‘m really enjoying), so I can read these and start recommending them to students! I think I‘ll start with The Remarkable Inventions of Walter Mortinson.
